Broadway Grosses: Four Celebrated Shows Excel in a Record-Breaking Week

Thanksgiving week saw a slew of productions setting new records on Broadway. Perhaps the most notable came from the Tony-winning two-part play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, setting a fresh record for the highest-grossing play in Broadway history, with an intake of $2,338,315, the most ever made in a single week by a play. Meanwhile, the fan-favorite new musical King Kong reported its best gross since performances began in October, taking in $1,203,258.75 at the Broadway Theatre, while the Tony-nominated musical Mean Girls ($1,778,290.45) broke the all-time August Wilson Theatre box office record and Frozen ($2,319,012.50) shattered the St. James Theatre's house record.
